Have you been watching Project Runway All Stars? I obsessively watch Project Runway every season (it goes with everything!)
I had the chance to hop on a call with All Stars judge, one of my favorite designers, the fabulous Isaac Mizrahi about this week’s finale. (If you aren't up to date, ther... Read More

The buzz before this season's TV shows launched was that indie movie darling Zooey Deschanel would be starring in The New Girl, a comedy for Fox.
I had no idea, nor did the rest of the world, that the character of Schmidt would steal the whole show. Played by Veronica Mars alum Max Greenfiel... Read More
